MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Nov. 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Guardian Analytics, the market leader in real-time behavioral analytics and machine learning solutions for banking payment fraud detection and enterprise B2B portal fraud, today announced an upcoming executive webinar, "Preventing Account Takeover (ATO) in a Post-Equifax Breach World."

With presentations by guest speaker Andras Cser, Vice President and Principal Analyst, Security & Risk for Forrester Research, along with Eric Tran-Le, Vice President of Product Management for Guardian Analytics, the webinar will shed light on fraud risks related to the recent Equifax breach, which compromised 143 million accounts and has sent consumers scrambling to protect their assets. As a result, financial institutions and corporations also need to prepare for the aftermath of this attack.

In this presentation, Cser will provide an expert industry perspective and discuss what financial institutions and enterprises can do to protect themselves and their customers. Attendees will gain insight into how organizations are raising their defenses, the best practices to minimize fraud loss, and how advanced analytics solutions can help mitigate the risk.

Eric Tran-Le, Vice President of Product Management at Guardian Analytics will explain that the most effective way to protect against stolen identities is to detect real-time anomalies in behaviors. He will describe how Guardian Analytics' patented machine learning and behavioral analytics technology can help combat account takeover fraud.
